Place was cute! Clearly still in the midst if remodeling and such, once in our room a staff member just walked in without knocking assuming it was empty- so communication was a little poor. Otherwise the owner is a gem! Loved her and would stay here again for a short little trip.

NO, DON'T DO IT!
Do not stay here! The only plus was the wonderful staff. Nothing worked. No fan in bathroom, no mini fridge, no volume on TV. The AC unit was so high up on the wall i had to go outside to find a stick long enough to click it on. Bed was comparable to a fold out couch mattress. Very uncomfortable.

No. No. No.
Check-in time was 3p, we arrived around 630p, room wasn’t ready. Stated she “fell asleep.” Then told us that the room would still not be ready for another 30 minutes. Again, this was already after 3p check-in time. Meanwhile, her sister came into town and surprised her and her meet and greet was more important than getting us into a room sooner rather than later. The significance of this poor review, is that we had been a long road trip, on a motorcycle, 1100 miles. We were an hour and a half away from home and was exhausted. This was our last night to get rested and get home the next day. Then, plumbing was bad in the shower. You couldn’t take a shower long enough before the tub starting filling up because the pressure(not complaining on that part) was so hard that it filled the tub quicker than you could shower. On tap of that, the toilet seat was falling off. Doesn’t make it easy for sitting.. I get it, we weren’t paying for the most luxurious experience but should still be in par condition. Especially in one of the most visited places in Wisconsin.

The staff was very friendly & helpful. Rooms were very clean, beds were very comfortable. Very quiet & we Loved that there was a microwave & frig in room. Walking to downtown Dells was a breeze so we never had to move the car. Looking forward to coming back next year.

Perfect Downtown Location!
We have stayed at the River Road Motel a couple of times now and keep coming back. This motel is perfectly located in walking distance to downtown Dells and the Riverwalk. Sara (Manager) and her staff are very nice, accomodating and attentive. Each room we've stayed in has been different in terms of size, furniture, etc. and Sara has been working hard to upgrade as much as possible, inside & out. If you're looking for a clean, value priced roadside motel, River Road is great choice.

Really can’t beat it for the price Good rooms nice space In the room right off the strip so you can walk around staff was great to whenever I needed something walked down to the front and asked whatever I needed.

This motel has many cleanliness issues. The price is reasonable, but everything else is far below average. Very poor organization and service. Don't be surprised, even though you have reserved a room, if someone else is in it and you can easily run out.
